What is a production monitoring system? Benefits for businesses today
Currently, the application production monitoring system is becoming a leading trend in the manufacturing industry. However, few people clearly understand the role and function of this system. To answer these questions, let’s join SSG Follow the article below!
Learn what a production monitoring system is?
Production monitoring system is a technology widely applied in automatic lines, factories and manufacturing enterprises.
Instead of relying on traditional manual monitoring, using handwritten charts and simple forms of information transmission, this system represents a new advancement for production management.
Production monitoring system has the function of detailed control of each stage in the production process and operates in real time.
It has the ability to quickly detect possible problems, including problems on the production line, lack of materials, unsatisfactory products, or detect errors in the finished product.
The popularity of this system is increasing due to its ability to update data automatically, quickly and accurately.
The system helps reduce dependence on human intervention by easily updating, changing and adjusting parameters without requiring much manual intervention. It is this accuracy and speed that increases the effectiveness of the monitoring system and helps manufacturers achieve high results.
Outstanding features of the production monitoring system
Save time saving data:
In traditional monitoring methods, recording information by hand is time-consuming and often prone to errors.
Opposite, production monitoring system Modern integration of advanced technology and direct connection to the computer through a dedicated server system.
Incident information, notes and data are automatically reported and stored on the server or computers on the network, helping to save time and reduce errors in the production process.
Easily control problems:
This monitoring system processes and transmits information to the storage computer via LAN using a server. Managers have the ability to control incidents as they occur, with the ability to pinpoint the exact location of the incident.
This way, they can take immediate measures to resolve the problem.
Detailed incident report:
Production monitoring systems provide detailed or comprehensive reports on production incidents and downtime during each shift or workday.
This information helps managers evaluate production performance and identify problem patterns. By analyzing these parameters, they can find the exact cause of the problem and provide effective remedies.
Basic functions of production monitoring system
Show production information:
The software provides an overview of planned output value and actual value to date. This allows for timely comparisons and adjustments, supporting managers and employees in evaluating work productivity. This information helps adjust production schedules, ensure suitability and save costs.
Instant notification:
Production steps are displayed visually, and the system automatically reports when problems or malfunctions are detected. This helps promptly stop the production line to avoid affecting product quality.
Support remote management:
Mobile technology is integrated, allowing remote production management. Managers can monitor production processes from anywhere, and employees can interact with the system to report problems promptly.
Product Quality Management:
Production monitoring system details the stages of completing the product, helping to ensure better quality and prevent errors from production.
Management of raw material warehouse:
The system notifies when raw material warehouses are about to run out, based on standard output and actual output. This helps avoid interruptions in the production process due to lack of raw materials, thereby reducing costs.
Manage raw material warehouse
Raw materials are essential factors in production. If the warehouse does not have enough raw materials for production, the production process will be interrupted, causing costs.
The system will be based on the rated output, and the actual output will notify when raw materials are about to reach the specified level.
Benefits of production monitoring systems for businesses
- Display and compare planned and actual output values.
- Improve productivity and adjust production schedule.
- Displays ANDON information instantly on the chain.
- Stores information for reporting and printing.
- Multi-industry applications, suitable for many production fields.
- Remote management via LAN or Internet.
- Support product quality management and incident reporting.
Why should businesses apply a production monitoring system?
As of now, adoption production monitoring system in businesses has become a reasonable choice to replace manual monitoring work.
This system provides the convenience of accurately recording and storing production data in real time. With high accuracy, the monitoring system not only ensures optimization of input raw materials but also promotes output product productivity.
At the same time, it creates a close link between the production area and other office departments, thereby developing a production improvement plan to enhance labor productivity and overall performance of the business. .
